A healthy liver is necessary for a healthy body. as it assists with Digestion, the smooth running of the lymphatic system, regulating blood sugar, and having a healthy and glowing skin. The liver works to filter out toxins, so keeping your liver in tip-top shape is so important to keep your body functioning properly. Especially if you suffer from crohn's disease.​HOW DO I CLEAN IT?

I am actually not a fan of a detox. It can put a lot of stress on your body. Even more so if you suffer from crohn's disease. I believe the symptoms associated with a detox may be to severe for a crohnie and we already have enough to deal with symptom wise on a day to day basis.

SO WHAT DO I DO?

So the key to a healthy liver is to maintain it's harmony and balance. Keep it healthy rather then try to get it healthy. Here are some foods and supplements that will help the liver do its work better.

Carrots: High in beta-carotene, they help regulate blood-sugar levels, while reducing inflammation in the body and are a good energy food.

Milk thistle: Contains an antioxidant that acts as a toxin blocker. Capsules can be taken daily for an extended period to repair the liver.

Lemons: Cleanse not only the liver, but also the gallbladder, kidneys, digestive tract and lungs.

Garlic: Helps strengthen and cleanse the blood, while giving the liver and kidneys a spring clean.

Dandelion tea: Dandelion has been used for centuries. It is a blood purifier and antioxidant and is recommended for those with liver complaints.

Beetroot juice: Contains a chemical called betaine that stimulates the liver cells and protects the liver and bile ducts.

Get plenty of sleep: Also have infrared saunas, indulge in lymphatic massages and drink lots of filtered water.
